Since nothing seemed to be happening here (hope I'm not stepping on any toes), I decided to start porting the loader. I now have the thing at the stage where it initialises the console and memory allocator and actually reaches the 'ok' prompt. Can't do much else with it yet though :-). If anyone is interested, I can send the source. I can't commit it just yet since I'm using some Intel header files and I'm waiting for clarification on the license for them. I suppose I'll have to buy an LS120 drive next since that seems to be the only way of getting information onto the beast. Fortunately the loader fits easily on a normal floppy. -- Doug Rabson Mail: dfr@nlsystems.com Phone: +44 20 8348 6160 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ia64" in the body of the message
